BIRMINGHAM, Alabama — After the opening "Symphony in the Summer" was rained out Friday at Railroad Park, crowds gathered for the Saturday night concert to hear the Alabama Symphony Orchestra perform a Shakespeare-inspired concert.

Christopher Confessore opened with Mendelssohn — appropriately, "A Midsummer Night's Dream," under a moonlight night that, although muggy, was rain-free with only a few lightning flashes in the distance.

The annual park concerts conclude Sunday at 6 p.m. with "Family Fun Day," featuring music from John Williams, Dvorak, Brahms, an array of music from the movies, Broadway and other selections.
